Unmasking the Left...Follow the Money

Ever read some press release by an innocous sounding group. Oh you know the ones... some fund for "children" or some such. Sounds good, everyone knows how important children are to our future, of course you are going to think kindly of a group that works on their behalf.

Well I guess we learn the hard way. Whether it's "for the children" or "saving the Whales" there's usually more to it than that.

Before you accept on face value whatever face of reason one of these groups presents, consider the source. How is it funded, who do they work with on issues. The following web site can do just that:.

It has an exhaustive database of left wing groups and their connections and funding sources along with articles describing their activities. David Horowitz, himself a recovering leftist is the prime unmasker.

The databse features a nifty graphical database. For example, I wanted more information about the "Children's Defense Fund" so looked them up in the list of groups and a page describing the group pops up. But I didn't stop there. A feature called "Visual Map" opens an interactive graphic display of all the groups that have either funded or worked with the CDF. Now I'm not sure about you, but I wonder what abortion rights groups would have to do with children? Or how about anti-Israel Palestinian and other Arab groups?

Click on each of those links to "follow the money." Fun AND informative.
